Hello,

I'm starting a defi, PvE-Raid oriented, geared with normal stuff like FoC 65, Magic Swallower and Reinf Jewelry for now. Can't spoil too many chars at same time,so he will have to handle things with that...temporary

Was thinking in a build that suits what I want for this defi and got some doubts. This is the build:

http://kruxena.com/skill-calculator.html?s=86#79,0,1,0,0,5,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,10,0,10,10,10,1,0,0,7,7,7,7,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5,5'>skill-calculator


Still having 18 free skill points,

1 - Have seen builds of people prefering Invisibility over Blessing of Haste or viceversa, and some others not taking those skills at all, arguing that Evasion ain't working as it should. So, are they worth to take or even max?

2 - Thinking of a lvl 79 build, how needed or useful are skills like Shape of Fear or Shadow Binding. Skip or Max? I've seen good use of Shape of Fear during JS runs when dealing with Garudas, but other than with Garudas, how useful is this skill actually? (remember I'm not interested in PvPing with defi)

I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestion or example of build. Prefer to ask before screwing up an unborn char

Eva is what most pve builds use since invisibility does upto 32% increase in eva and Blessing of WIND (not haste) can be used to furher buff ur eva stats. Again, i dont know if evasion is broken or watever but defilers have an inherently high base eva stat.

chuck in a point for lvl 1 summon illusion > will save you from a nasty stun most of the time.

Shape of Fear is more a pvp move as it can affect players and mobs but only 1 target... The defi move Fury does the same thing but to Mobs Only but has aoe. I dunno if its bugged etc coz i never used it. If fury does work, then its superior to SoF for pve.

shadow binding is meh. if you have spare pts its not too bad for pve. will help stop a mob that escapes Terms of Service but i suppose its a pt heavy investment.

More stun moves like binding soul probably wont be as useful for pve. pve defilers arent meant to get up close to mobs and their ranged damage will kill you long before you stun them for like 1 sec....

lvl 65 FoC gear is actually more pvp orientated but its ok for pve. Get blacksun s1 for good hp otherwise.

Thank you for your reply. I'll try defi out now, and see how it goes
